explanation to the swap terms:

notional amount =the number of dollars you are investing: $10,000,000. That is also known as the initial value.

Face amount: The number of US Dollar $10,000,000 (x) the beginning peso rate 6.10

divided by: the cete price. Since the cete trades at a discount and matures at par, the number used here is the percentage of par for a one year obligation when the rate is 35%. Ie: the cete is trading at 73.755% of par

($10,000,000 * 6.10) /.73755 = 82,705,833 pesos invested.

terminal value: In this case we are doing a different calculation than the usual cete trade. We are keeping the same number of peso's as we had at the beginning (82,705,833) and multiplying that by the cetes price terminal (which we know is par if held to maturity) and dividing it by the final peso rate (let us assume 7.50 in one year).

82,705,833 / 7.50 = $11,027,444

Terminal value - initial value = your profit or loss
